Chapter 665

Chapter 665

Have you ever woken up in the morning and wished that all your memories from the past were just dreams?

I was like that now

Even on the day I was reborn, at that moment, I had never felt like this, but the ripple effect of the five demons was awesome in many ways.

“Haa... We can’t use those as guards either.”

If they were just guys who were thrown in as personal soldiers, I would have written that, but since they were clearly ‘guards’ carefully selected by Saint Deoni, I couldn’t just abandon them like that. After opening my eyes in the bedroom that Tie had introduced as my room, I stared at the unfamiliar ceiling for dozens of minutes, thinking, but in the end, I came to the conclusion that they were destined to be my companions for a while.

“Did you put it there on purpose?”

It was strange. No matter how worried I was, I was driving around in my own car, so how could the saint not know that they were a burden to me? I called them over and asked them just in case, but I only got a lukewarm response.

I had to move quickly to ask directly if there was anything I could do. With a deep sigh, I got out of bed and with the help of the sect members who were surprisingly skilled at their duties, I finished breakfast and gathered the demons into the office.

The demon tribe, consisting of three men and two women, were all relatively tall regardless of gender. They even had a size suitable for close combat, so just having six of them together made the office feel full.

“Where is the saint now?”

“They were stationed in Sore before we left, but they said they would be moving soon to make contact with the northern... no, eastern front.”

When the demon tribe that had not yet been drained of the demon king’s army answered, all the other guys nodded their heads. It seems that what only one guy said yesterday was just a formality. When asked about the current situation on the front lines, after a brief battle of wits, someone who knew the details repeatedly answered.

It was a good sign that they didn’t have bad relations with each other or tended to ignore anyone. Still, since they were dragged out to catch heroes, they had the basics down, so it seemed like it would be good to just watch them for a while and pick a quick guy to make him the leader.

But things can’t always be perfect. These guys had a fatal flaw that most demons shared.

I can’t ride a dragon...!

“sorry···”

“It’s not something you have to be sorry about.”

I just tamed a car in a very unique way, and it is difficult to ride a domesticated horse, so it is difficult to ride a wild dragon overnight. It seems that I was able to get here quickly with the help of the gate and the dragon pilots.

“I guess I’ll have to find a horse first.”

After going through several recent incidents, it was comforting to know that I didn’t have to worry about money at this level. I can’t let my guard down because money is disappearing even if I just breathe, but I can hold out until I sell the dragon’s byproduct.

“Shall we look for a war horse?”

Tiega was standing quietly behind him, and when he heard the muttering, he reacted, but after a moment of hesitation, he shook his head.

“That’s right. That’s one of the reasons why I have wide feet.”

Yekaterina’s eyes widened as if something had occurred to her as she wiped the beer foam off her beard, and she poked Lelie’s side, who was lying face down on the table, and asked.

“Come to think of it, didn’t Eldmia say she caught a dragon? To process the dragon’s byproducts, she needs the help of the dwarven generals, so shouldn’t she stop by the capital at least once?”

“That may be true, but... why would you spend so much time going to such a far place to make equipment? I think you’ll be able to fight well even without that.”

As usual, the Eldmia song began again, but Lelie’s reaction was different from before.

While working as a Gaendal party, we received many requests, but we did not work with just four people. We sometimes received additional people when necessary, and sometimes we had to fill the gaps in the existing members with third parties due to each person’s circumstances.

And every time that happens, I unconsciously think of Eldmia and compare it to her.

Strictly speaking, comparing Eldmia to other adventurers is very harsh. Even if we exclude the title of Hero of the Machine God, he was a Kirin-ah who had far surpassed the level of feats that a human who had just become an adult could accomplish.

However, the reason she keeps making comparisons is because the Eldmia she knows is from before he was revered as a warrior or hero.

Until then, I had been in the category of those who committed acts of aggression, so whenever I encountered people who were older than me but had lost their social skills or abilities, I would always think of them as a grumble. Of course, it was less than Catherine’s.

“I can’t be sure, but if we can safely rescue the demon cultists and join the royal army, I think it’s quite possible. No matter how much effort you put in and save, it’ll be hard to keep your equipment in good condition on a journey like that.”

It is a forced march that literally involves jumping into the middle of enemy territory and holding out for months. Even if the army is in such a harsh environment, it is clear that there will be no equipment left.

“However... I’m not sure if you can make equipment from byproducts like Lelie said. It’s true that good equipment will come out, but even if you fly on a dragon, it’s not something you can ignore.”

“What was that? Wasn’t there an iron carriage connected to the Empire?”

“You mean the train? Of course there is one, but it is only used for the purpose of exchange and trade between the imperial family and the royal family, so even if you are a warrior, you can’t use it easily... Ahh ...

What stopped Gin from answering Catherine’s question without thinking was the sight of Eldmia, who had received a letter from the Iron-Blooded Princess of the Empire.

“Surely... it might be possible...”

“Right? You won’t hear any rumors while you’re here, right?”

They had been working very hard under the pretext of helping out the guild that was short on manpower, so they decided to take a break for a while.

Since there was nothing to do anyway since she was resting, the thought crossed Yekaterina’s mind that it might not be a bad idea to stop by and say hello to the housekeeper staying at Eldmia’s house.

“Now that I think about it, there was a lot of noise about the dragon’s byproducts, but I never got to see it. Can we at least take a look between us?”

“···Okay·”

Lelie, who was looking at Catherine, who was noticeably regaining her energy, with her eyes wide open, answered indifferently, shaking her shoulders.

Perhaps because she had become accustomed to such reactions, Lelie now saw Catherine as just excited to see the dragon’s byproduct.
